what a pretty sample, really like it! i was wondering if you could do a tutorial on how to use excel to make matrixes for embroidery. if you have the time i think it would be greatly appreciated by the community.

This is my little space on the ethernet where I can "witter" on about my creative side because if I talk to my husband - he nods, and agrees but mostly just lets me "witter" on to my hearts content - I love him really!
